Veteran's Day

11/12/2013

0 Comments

 
Our blood has stained the soil of many nations, the waters of many oceans. 
Some have loved us, others reviled us, none can deny us…… our tears flow freely
for our fallen comrades, our rage soars against those who defile them.  We
stand ever vigilant against those who would harm our nation, we are of all
colors, of all faiths, of all backgrounds, we are rich and poor, we are humble,
we are proud.  We are of the elite, we are of the land, we deny your pity,
we shed your indifference, we accept your gratitude, and we command your
respect, on this day, our day, we demand you set aside your pettiness and
celebrate what we are, above all things…..soldiers, sailors, airmen, and
marines…..by God we are The Armed Forces of The United States of America…..To
all my Brothers and Sisters-in-arms I salute you.

It's not what you sell, it's what you stand for

It's not what you sell. It's what you stand for that matters. Here at Post 129 we may operate a canteen to cover the expenses of Legion but our purpose is greater than that. 
 
THE AMERICAN LEGION PREAMBLE


"For God and Country, we associate ourselves together for the
following purposes:


To uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of  America; to maintain law and order; to  foster and perpetuate a 100-percent Americanism; to preserve the  memories and incidents of our associations in the great wars; to inculcate a sense of individual obligation to the community, state and nation; to combat the autocracy of both the classes and the
masses; to make right the master of might; to promote peace and good will on earth; to safeguard and  transmit to posterity the principles of  justice, freedom and democracy; to consecrate and sanctify our comradeship by our devotion to mutual helpfulness."
